Minor league moves a'plenty

Jayne over at What the Heck, Bobby? has news of more minor league retirements and cuts. Steve Martin and Justin Shults retired, and David Flores, Ebert Rosario, Jimmy Van Ostrand, and Lance Pendleton were released.

I'm a bit surprised to see David Flores released given our lack of depth at third base and his successful season at Lancaster last year.

With their 37th Round pick...

...The Astros select 6'6" 225lb Steve Martin, a RHP out of - again - Texas A&M.

The fact that his name is Steve Martin makes it easy to find things out about him. Still, it's what we're here for, so we can rule out his role in the Three Amigos, a Grammy-winning banjo player, or successful novelist.

Nope, this Steve Martin threw in 10 games - all out of the bullpen - for A&M, posting a 5.79 ERA, with 9H/6ER, 3K:4BB in 9.1IP.

In 2010, he only played in three games, and appeared in two games in 2009.

His career goal is to get into real estate development.
